About the book:

Nothing burns as bright as the flames of the refiner’s fire.

Moments after hearing the Council sentence her enemy to life imprisonment for
attempted murder and illegal use of magic, Darcy is whisked away by the
Fates—accused of tampering with destiny. The cherished dream she shared with
Mason has been called into question, placing doubt about whether they are
actually true mates. To resolve it, a price must be paid—the Heart or Death—a
grueling series of tests designed to reveal a person’s worth.

The stakes are high and Darcy finds herself facing the unknown in conditions
that leave her more vulnerable than she’s ever been. Separated from Mason and
her Pack, with Devlin as her only companion, she is pushed to her very limits.
She must succeed—or lose everything.

Will she crumble under the pressure or emerge stronger for testing fate?

Alright folks what you are about to read next is my interview with Mason of the Mystic Wolves Pack. Grinning and yes he is as sweet and swoonworthy as he is in the books. So swoon away.

Q: Alright Mason, what was
the first thought that flashed through your mind when you laid eyes on Darcy
for the first time?

Mason: The first thing? That I was looking at my mate, and no
other woman would ever compare. She was so beautiful, like a vision, and the next
day when I found out she was my blind date, I knew we were destined. The Fates
brought us together, and I’d be damned if I let anyone or anything tear us
apart. Darcy is my whole world. I’m nothing without her.

Q: Did you ever get jealous of Darcy and Devlin’s
friendship, I mean before you found out his true identity?

Mason: Never. That’s the
thing about being in a committed relationship and trusting the one you love.
You can’t fake the kind of connection Darcy and I have—the loyalty and respect.
When she tells me she loves me, I believe her. I’m secure in myself and us
enough not to entertain jealousy. Besides, I’ve known Devlin for a while. He’s
honorable, and has done nothing but protect Darcy. His intentions are my
intentions—to keep her safe and happy.

Q: Can you give us a glimpse into future plans
for you and Darcy and the pack you may be able to tell your fans?

Mason: My future plan is
enjoy married life with my beautiful mate, and keep the Pack safe from any
further threats. Life as a werewolf can be unpredictable *chuckles* so here’s
hoping the worst is behind us. Who knows what our lovely author has in store
for us, though. I’ve been telling Belinda I’d like some swoony nights of
romance, maybe a baby. Can you imagine my Darcy pregnant? Or the children we
could have together? *grins* A little girl just like her Momma. Yeah, my future
plans involve living happily ever after … as soon as Darcy processes the huge
bomb-shell Devlin dropped on her.

Q: What emotions and thoughts surfaced when you
saw who your companion was for your trials?

Mason: It was indescribable. Of course, I can’t talk too much
about it. It’s still kind of raw seeing them and I’d hate to spoil it for those
who haven’t read Testing Fate. All I can say is it was needed, and the time
together healed my heart.

Q: Are you mad at the fates for intervening and
subjecting you and Darcy to these trials?

Mason: Of course, wouldn’t you be? Not so much
subjecting me to their trials, but the woman I love. Going in blind and not
being there to protect her, drove me insane. It went against ever instinct I
hold as a man, wolf, and Alpha. Add the fact it wasn’t even our fault there was
an issue . . . yeah, mad is an understatement. But what could I do? I believe
when a problem surfaces, you have three choices: argue, hide, or face it head
on. I was proud of Darcy’s courage in facing the unknown. It showed me exactly
what kind of character she has, and why I always believed she was the one for
me. Even though it was a risk, faith told me we’d get through it. Anger
wouldn’t resolve it, only action. It’s a philosophy I apply to being an Alpha.

Thanks
for having me on your site today, Diana *grins, shaking the hand you offer*
You’ll have to stop by Woodside Hollow sometime. Maybe come the next time we
have a BBQ!

Now my thoughts on Testing Fate

Mason and Darcy must do the inevitable to ensure there mate status is upheld by the fates. Would you go above and beyond for your love even if it meant death. Darcy holds steadfast to her beliefs through every trial and tribulation the fates put before her and she must do it by herself. So what does the future hold for this couple that is something I shall not divulge? But I promise it does not stop there. The author once again throws a cliffhanger in our direction, one that will have you saying whaaaaaaaaa. With this last cliffhanger I wonder what wild ride Belinda will be taking us on next time.

About Me

I am an advid reader always have a book with me. I also have the most beautiful three great danes ever. I fell in love with the city of New Orleans when I was a small child. It has a history unique to itself and it flourishes with culture. Anne Rice is a big influence to me. The thought of Lestat walking the streets of New Orleans freaks me out to this day. I often consider myself an old soul from my love of old black and white movies and 80's I mean really who wouldn't want John Cusack holding a Boom Box under your window. I also enjoy all kinds of music, I have very eclectic tastes.
I am also an aspiring author working on two series.
